Well it doesn’t get much easier than this! If your school allows nuts this makes for a really quick and yummy lunchbox treat or even party snack for nut lovers.
These are quite similar to my Chewy Peanut Butter Bars however I have tweaked them and made them a tad more healthy and bite size. Everything tastes so much better in bite size don’t you think?
NOTE: Some people have had issues melting this in certain Thermo Mixers. I highly recommend using the non thermo version to avoid any fails.

Peanut Butter Honey Bites
- Total Time: 120
- Yield: 30 1x
Description
NOTE: Some people have had issues melting this in certain Thermo Mixers. I highly recommend using the non thermo version to avoid any fails.
Ingredients
- 2 cups of rice bubbles or brown puffed rice
- 230g good quality natural crunchy peanut butter, this should be a runny consistency
- 175g honey
Instructions
- Line a square cake tine with baking paper.
- Place peanut butter and honey into bowl. 5 minutes / 100 degrees / Speed 3 or until melted and smooth. This will vary from brand to brand depending on your oil content. Don’t be alarmed if it doesn’t melt completely. It will still mix and combine well.
- Add rice bubbles. Mix on reverse / Speed 2 until bubbles are covered. You may find you prefer to just put the rice bubbles in a bowl, pour over liquid and mix by hand with a wooden spoon.
- Place into a lined square cake tin. Smooth the top with a glass or back of a spoon.
- Refrigerate until set, approximately 2.5 hours.
- Cut into 30 bite size pieces.
Notes
But I don’t have a Thermo Mixer
- Simply melt the peanut butter and peanut butter in a microwave safe bowl for 1 minute or until melted and smooth. Continue step
Hi Peta, i don’t know what i could have done wrong with such a simple recipe, but my honey and peanut butter did not melt at all – in fact, it seemed to get harder and drier, and i even cooked it for a further minute on top of the 5 mins in case it just needed a bit longer. It was therefore very hard to mix, but has finally come together and it’s now in the fridge waiting for it to set. Have you ever experienced this? any tips?
Mine did exactly the same thing as Nadias!!
Still looks like it will taste good though!!

This will vary from brand to brand depending on your oil content. Which brand did you use? Don’t be alarmed if it doesn’t melt completely. It will still mix and combine well. It seems some people have had issues but others in our questions group haven’t had any at all. I am wondering if it is a brand and oil content thing?
Mine did this too, Nadia. I used the sanitarium peanut butter that’s only made from peanuts so don’t know if the lack of ‘extras’ is the problem?
I just went with it and it’s in the fridge now. How did yours go?
